    Mmmm. Grits and sweet tea. You can take them from my cold, dead, fat hands.

    Calling Shape out on their inaccurate and misleading articles is always fun.
    One article recommended drinking wine before swimming, and that women should never lift more than men. :noway: :noway:

    I wouldn't change my diet based on that list, although I agree about the soda.

    Waitaminute, companies can put the fiber and junk back in and as long as it's in the right proportions they get to say there's ‘whole grains’ in it? I gotta double check that one but my gut is going with true. Smh...

    I'm beginning to get really confused by all the flavors of flour at my store. Most flours are wheat flour. But now there's bleached whole wheat enriched flour and I'm thinking that's different than the whole wheat flour that I want.

    How dare they define one of my favorite comfort foods an "unholy marriage of simple carbohydrates and saturated fat."

    You forgot the "blood-vessel-destroying" part. lol

    More "carbs iz da debil" scaremongering. I do agree about rice cakes and seitan, but for different reasons. Rice cakes are like eating chunks of a styrofoam cooler, and "meat substitutes" are sacrilege in my book - why substitute when you can have the real thing instead?

    I find it hilarious that it is called "7 foods a nutritionist would never eat". All the nutritionists I have ever known (none professionally - all as friends) have been very overweight or struggling to practice personally what they have been taught. They often went into the field of nutrition with a personal interest as they struggled with their weight. I have yet to meet any thin ones although I'm sure there are some. It would be an inspiring story if they won their battle - but I think there is far more to it than just the knowledge of what is good to eat. There also needs to be addressed the underlying reason overeating occurs.

    All of this.


    Also, I'm kind of surprised that you would post a Shape article, OP. I thought you were very science-based from other threads, and this one doesn't even have references.
